New Grower New system and new strains

I like your positive attitude. Keep the going my friend.

All is well as we passed the one week mark. Growth is starting to increase and it will soon be time for LST. I'd post pic but haven't figured that out yet.

Been following a fast Buds Blue Dream'matic grow in another forum. The grow is two weeks ahead of me and plants were topped and LST. Hope to figure out if I want to top or not. The growth of this strain seems to encourage it. Any feed back would be cool

We got a few guys & gals on here who top autos but for the most part ppl don’t. The main reason, is that unlike photos, autos are on a time from seed to flower. So by topping an auto you are going to stunt it’s growth, even if it’s just a little bit, the time it takes to recover is time the auto could be spending to increase size, budsites, & what not.

Been two weeks since I dropped the seeds into starter pods. The growth rate has increased and internodal development is three strong. At the forth node I will begin to LST once some stretch has occurred. I'll figure out how to share pics sooner or later.

Most will mix ffof with ff happy frog with great results. My first grow was that with added perlite and worm castings. Just add water and cal/mag till flower and your good.

What strain where you growing? With different size auto plants, adding nutes to Ocean Forest during veg stage may be necessary to reach peak growth potential. If it's an XXL like I'm growing, def going to need to add nutes. Even an XL should be given some, not much need though. As for the typical small Lowryder I wouldn't add extra fert. Grown small autos before and picked up enough to understand nutes management. Now they are bigger, it challenges me to push but not to much

I grew big ones in tlo. With the worm castings and ffof and ffhf and mycos. If mixed right you will only need to add nutes close to flower and during. Some have made only water mixes too.

At 2.5 wks I topped and LST my plants. The final push to get me to top them was reading "how it grows" report from FastBuds. I will not be topping FastBuds Blackberry or Gorilla Glue. These will be grown natural or with limited LST. UPDATE: .Plants took the beating very well and are growing strong again.

I've got this big tent I want to fill up. Thinking of start more seeds today cause don't think these 4 Bluedream'matic plants will do it. Only coming up on week 3 and don't see the growth rate increasing to produce size I desire. Opinions?

Here we are on the 3 birthday of my ladies. The LST is working and plants are growing strong. These plants love water! I have given them some nutes but will start pushing more after week 4. Hope plant size will triple by week 6 or before flowering starts. I'll be giving these gals all they can handle. So,.thinking I will have some room in the tent I started 3 FastBuds RynoRyder seeds. All have cracked and are progressing. Both FastBuds strain should finish around the same time making it easier to start their Blackberry Auto Fem.
